Stratulat Albulescu has advised Resource Partners and World Class Romania's management on the sale of World Class to the African Industries Group. Radu Taracila Padurari Retevoescu advised AIG.

Founded in 2009, Resource Partners is an independent Polish private equity investment fund. So far, the fund invested nearly EUR 300 million in the development of several medium-sized companies.

According to Stratulat Albulescu, World Class is “Romania’s leading fitness chain, having introduced the concept of modern fitness clubs as early as 2000, when they opened their first club in Bucharest. Since then, the company organically expanded its network to more than 40 health & fitness clubs throughout the country, currently having more than 65,000 members.”

Previously, Stratulat Albulescu advised World Class on opening a fitness club in Bucharest's Expo Business Park (as reported by CEE Legal Matters on December 30, 2019), as well as the acquisition of Planet Swim and Gym (as reported on December 17, 2019), both in 2019, and the acquisition of the Stay Fit Gym Oltenitei fitness club, in 2018 (as reported on October 10, 2018).

Stratulat Albulescu’s team included Managing Partner Silviu Stratulat, Partners Octav Stan, Cristian Vlaicu, Cristina Man, and Andrei Albulescu, Senior Associates Sandra Frunzulica and Daiana Assoum, and Associates Amanda Csaki and Roxana Ioncu.
